Shi Tao

Shi Tao (died 348) was Prince of Le'an and Duke of Qin under the Later Zhao dynasty. He was murdered by his brother Shi Xuan in 348 in a dispute over the succession of their father Shi Le once he died.

Biography
Shi Tao was a son of Shi Le by Empress Du of Later Zhao, and he rivaled his brother Shi Xuan for the succession of their father. In 348, Shi Tao had a palace built called "Xuangong", offending Shi Xuan, as it had the character "Xuan" in its name (considered offensive to revered people in ancient China). Shi Tao was assassinated by Shi Xuan as a result, leading to Shi Xuan's gruesome execution by their father.
